- This means that both CAN lines are always required for fault-free communication between the control units.
- This CAN bus requires external terminating resistors.
- The terminating resistors can be located in control units or voltage distributors depending on the CAN bus.

3.1.1.4. Possible aids and their usage
Evaluation of CAN fault codes
- The control units present in the vehicle (actual configuration) are compared with the coding in control unit CGW (specified configuration).
- Filtering and evaluation of all CAN timeout fault codes present in the vehicleThe result of the evaluation leads to the required test steps.
Multimeter
- Aids for voltage and resistance measurement in menu item 'Measurements with multimeter on CAN network'
Measuring system
- Aid for graphic representation of CAN signal and voltage levels
- The specified characteristics shown in Measurement Technology are used to recognize changed CAN voltage levels, which can be caused by
faulty CAN components.
- Possible procedure: Disconnect and then reconnect the CAN bus subscribers at the voltage distributor one at a time.Compare the pass image
with the actual image from the oscilloscope.
Star Diagnosis CANtool
- Aids for representation of actual values and identification of bus wake-up events and bus keepawake events
